...a large Asian's country defense organization to supply an end-to-end aeronautical test telemetry solution. The telemetry project, comprising ORBIT's off-the-shelf tracking systems, third-party equipment, software and services is estimated at more than US$ 3 million. A follow-up order for a similar project is expected in the near future. To service its growing base of customers in this strategic market, ORBIT has established a local customer support center in one of the evolving market of Asia. Using these resources, ORBIT will provide the defense organization with local training and support to solve problems in the field with minimum downtime.

ORBIT will supply the defense organization with a turnkey end-to-end aeronautical telemetry solution and will assume full project ownership from installation to operation. ORBIT's highly accurate, off-the-shelf tracking systems for L- and S-bands for antennas ranging from 1.2 to 3 meters in diameter. By offering a combined L- and S-band feed with auto-tracking capabilities, ORBIT's solution eliminates the need for dual antennas, reducing customer's cost by almost half. In addition, the use of off-the-shelf products enabled ORBIT to realistically commit to very fast delivery times. Consistent with customer's functional requirements, ORBIT's products are proven to operate in high temperatures and humidity, and their portability facilitates use in different applications. ORBIT's tracking antenna systems are part of ORBIT's field-proven suite of Tracking & Telemetry systems, which enable continuous communication with aircraft, missiles and UAVs.
